Presentation on theme: "Its Good To Squawk! Why YOU should always Squawk Mode C."— Presentation transcript:

2
If You Get Close To An Aircraft Equipped With TCAS II And your SSR is OFF or on STANDBY = No indication on TCAS ! (no warning of your presence)

3
And your SSR is just ON (ie no Mode C) = Traffic Advisory (TA) without Altitude (may help their attempts to gain visual contact with you) If You Get Close To An Aircraft Equipped With TCAS II

4
And your SSR is on ALT = Full TCAS Protection including Resolution Advisory (RA) (TCAS generates vertical Resolution Advice so they can avoid you) If You Get Close To An Aircraft Equipped With TCAS II

5
Other (eg ATC) Conflict Alert Systems Depend On Use Of Mode C Too. And your SSR is on ALT = Also seen by other Safety Net Systems (Including Conflict Alert systems used by ATC)

6
And……. Another advantage of squawking Mode C is that this can allow ATC to apply vertical separation rather than providing unnecessary lateral avoiding action. This benefits aircraft under the appropriate radar service in Class G airspace, (and that could be you). 030 075 ?

So – Even though YOU Are Not Equipped With TCAS II – YOU Are Also Gaining Additional Safety Benefit By Squawking Mode C
